While You Were Out
Here’s a great creative writing idea to use with your students:
While You Were Out
Taking phone messages is a significant home and job-related skill, and not an easy task. The message taker needs to listen attentively and record accurately the appropriate information. Notes, such as phone messages, require that the necessary information be conveyed with clarity. Practicing this skill could be a great learning activity. The Notes could be taken on official “While You Were Out” note pads or on scratch paper. Give your student a message. Afterwards ask them to check their notes for 5 pieces of information:
- Who called
- When they called (date and time)
- Their phone number
- The message
- Who gets the message
